Spitting image

Twenty-three years after it was last broadcast, Roger Law, one of the co-creators of the groundbreaking comedy, has confirmed that Spitting Image is set to return to television screens – featuring an S&M-clad Vladimir Putin, Meghan Markle wearing a glittery “princess” T-shirt and a puppet of Donald Trump whose tweets are composed by his anus.
There's an abundance of subject matter around for the scriptwriters, so hope this doesn't disappoint. I wonder if Lord Lucan will make an appearance?

THAT IS FUCKING BRILLIANT
Had me crying.
Who is the Zing guy that posted it? Has absolutely no idea. I think you probably have to be British to understand.

I wonder how the Spitting Image creators will deal with the Epstein/Maxwell saga and its significant role in manipulating our politics in the West, or does it play along with the illusion that Priti Pathetic is in some way a staunch traditional Tory and far right anti-immigrant patriot and not a Ugandan fifth columnist sacked for being a traitor to the British and Keir Starmer is in some way in opposition to the neocon/neoliberal blue rosette wearing commies in power right now?
I love how Spitting Image goes at them from all angles... except the very one that sheds a light on their true natures.

Gove is the natural replacement for Kenneth Baker's slug as it goes. Him or Wes Streeting.

I forgot the Gove character.
The trouble is some people are such caricatures already its hard to satirise them.

Well.
I think you get a month free. If not it’s a six quid try out. Maybe wait till the entire new series of Spitting Imnage is on it but then it won’t be topical. What’s great about it is it’s immediacy.
I watched a few great old series in lock down and more recently I got to watch Green Wing again. I arfed a lot
